I use Lumapix Fotofusion and love it. My computer crashed last year and I was able to download the program again without being charged. Now I am going to purchase a laptop. So, will I be allowed to download the program yet again without charge? Thanks.

Most companies apply either a time limit, say 6 months or year from purchase (sometimes only a couple of days) and you can download it as many times as you like in this time period. Other companies set a limit on the number of times you can download something. yet others, do both. Some companies offer a download extension for a small charge. So it all depends on the company and any extended service you may have bought.

If you still have the downloaded file (.ext usually or a zip folder), you could move this to your laptop, and install it from this.

It may depend on if you are removing it from your original computer or adding it to another computer. The terms of use would explain that. With operating software, you definitely have to purchase a license for each computer you want to use it on. With programs, it depends. Adobe will let you install PSE, for instance, on more than one computer (say a desktop and a laptop).
